With the news that Las Vegas expects 80% of visitors this weekend to arrive by car due to low gas prices, I thought I'd evaluate.

Currently in Edmonton, its 95.9 cents/litre at most stations. What's that translate to? Take it away Google:$3.23 dollars per gallon (in US dollars).

So whats the current gas prices in Las Vegas? As low as $2.15 dollars per gallon! As much as $2.58. How about Los Angeles, where most of the Vegas traffic will come from? As low as $2.43 and as high as $2.85.

If Edmonton gas was the equivalent to Las Vegas, it would cost 63.8 cents per litre. Gack
